Red, White, and Blue
“Susan Isaacs has…a knack for entertaining her reader with the details of American pop culture…Isaacs has taken on a formidable project: to write a multigenerational family drama that is also a romantic comedy and a murder mystery and a serious consideration of weighty issues like anti-Semitism and assimiliation—all without losing her sense of humor or her eye for the entertaining detour.”
New York Times Book Review
Special Agent Blair of the FBI has the numbing job of a bureaucrat and the soul of a cowboy. He is about to walk away from the safe world of paper pushing to risk his life infiltrating an armed group of white supremacists called Wrath.
Generation X-er Lauren Miller is an articulate, ironic, and unwaveringly liberal journalist investigating a bombing that Wrath supposedly masterminded. She is also determined to discover how people who have never met a Jew in their lives can be so obsessed with Jews as to want them dead.
Drawn together to investigate an appalling hate crime, these two seeming opposites discover that they may have more in common than a passion for justice—perhaps even a shared heritage.
